[Group Training | RP: Grave and the Assassin.]

Returning from his small missions that was given to him by Grave. It seemed that things were just calming down after the missions. But Grave was passing the cave that he had sealed the bijuu within himself. Glancing over at the cave Grave felt something off. 'What's this presence...I hope no body has been within this cave at all.' Thinking to himself Grave pulled his Shakujo from his back having it to the front to himself the six rings on the staff raddled. As the sound was echoing into the cave. Grave began walking into the darkness slowly carefully watching where he was stepping.

Soon coming into the entrance of the giant open battlefield that Raijin and himself had with the Bijuu. Grave was still sensing something around the area. Soon though the voice of the bijuu echoed within his mind, 'What...are you scared you could be killed within an instant human?' Grave shook his head thinking to himself. 'Yeah...me dying I'm just having chills of seeing your ass pop out again...or worse...me sealing you back into me.' After which the bijuu went quiet only to hear a huffing noise as Grave smiled still looking around getting into a battle stance. "I know someone's here...now where are you..." Grave's grip tighten around the staff carefully watching his corners.

Inshitsu's right eyebrow curved as he realized that the man who had wandered into his cave didn't see him. Inshitsu got up from lying on his back into a crouching position. The man was carrying a interesting staff with six rings attached to it. It seemed that he was expecting an ambush, but had no intention of killing someone particular. 'I can just present myself and he won't attack me, hopefully,' Inshitsu decided he wouldn't stand a chance against the priest as he stood up fully with his hands next to his head. "Yo, what 'cha here for?" the sound of his voice sounded so unusually frightened for Inshitsu. He wasn't ready for a fight if the priest was looking to kill him today.

Hearing a voice Grave turned slightly over to the right to see the figure with their hands up. 'Odd...to see someone so easily just to give up instead of getting their enemies off guard or to even gather some form of information. On the target...but it seems they may be new to this. The voice on the other hand...seems like a male.' Thinking to himself Grave turned his body slowly to get a better view of the person. "Well for one I should be asking you that question...are you not aware that this cave is scared in many ways?" Grave then vanished only to appear behind the person taking a closer look at the person he was in the cave with carefully.

"Based upon your height, I say you are a young one...which means you just came out of the academy did you not?" Grave smirked only to sneak in front of the person smiling. "What is your name young one?" Grave was wondering if this person could have some connection to the village that he was trying to forget in the back of his mind.

"My na..name?" Inshitsu had been frightened when the man had appeared from behind him. The man must be a shinobi if he's able to teleport, but of what rank? The man's face was twisted into a smile, but the reason was unknown to Inshitsu. "It's Hiraishin, Inshitsu Hiraishin," Inshitsu let his hands fall to his sides as he started relaxed from the lack of a violent reaction from the man." And about the academy, yeah I just got out of it a couple of days back." Inshitsu shunned himself for letting that piece of infomation slip from his mouth. 'Well, at least now if he going to kill me, he knows it'll be easy.' Inshitsu's face twisted into a grimace as he looked into the eyes of the man before him. "Either way, most people don't come out here, so that doesn't answer why you are here." Inshitsu had been annoyed when the man had skipped over his question with his own. If he was going to be here, he could at least play ball fairly.

Grave smiled placing his hand on top of the young boys head, "Its a pleasure to meet you, Hiraishin Inshitsu. I'm Asakura Grave, but now that you mention it...your clan hires from Kumo as does mine." That was interesting soon sensing a hint of annoying coming from the young boy. Grave shook his head saying, "Sorry about that, I come to this cave rarely to remember the battle that took place a while back with my friend and I. It was very interesting how we both survived. As its hard to see but if you look up you can see the square that was placed because of my barrier jutsu. Which doesn't seem to be must now but I have to master that one later."

Grave walked over to the place where he noticed the attack from the bijuu had made contact almost ending both Raijins and his lives. Shaking his head, Grave turned his attentions back to the young shinobi only to question something. "So why do you come here? It doesn't seem like you are living here but it also doesn't seem like you are training here." Grave was curious now because of this shinobi being here within the cave.

Placing his shakujo on to his back Grave sat down sitting on his knees with his hands resting softly on top of his legs. Awaiting the shinobi's answer before he decided on an action.

Inshitsu was taken back from Grave's calm manner after he had struck a battle stance just from being able to sense someone. "Well I guess I haven't been training enough then. Yeah I train here, but I don't like sleeping on a cold floor, not so sure about you." While Inshitsu was sure that poking fun at Grave wasn't going to tick him off too badly, he had a strange feeling that he was going to regret that one later. "I was just napping from a short jog, when you came in ready to hurt something, so I just stayed down." Inshitsu wasn't lying all the way, he had came back from a jog, after getting his ear barked off from his girlfriend's wrath. Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, Inshitsu recalled what Grave had said to him as he walked away from him. "What battle had happened here and what was strong enough to leave a hole that size in the wall?" He pointed the hole that had been there when he discovered the cave's vacant status. Even then, it had seemed impossible to Inshitsu that he could not have heard anything with such strength. He walked over to a wall, leaning on it with his legs crossed, to stare at Grave as he started to consider his options on what he could do now.

Grave then closed his eyes smiling as though he seemed ready for something. As soon he opened his eyes after hearing about the battle. Grave shook his head, "Well don't worry about the battle how about this...if you train and need a place to sleep I have a few rooms open back at my place so you stay there and plus we have a dojo. I'm sure that my friend would like to see some new faces with you. Besides we have training equipment that can help you out in the end. How does that sound?"

Grave tried to ignore the question of the battle. But soon shook his head saying, "Plus...I have some scrolls you can read that way you can answer your own question with that. Leaving that at rest how about we get going on the way I can train you how does that sound?" Grave stood up slowly getting the shakujo once again turning around to get ready to leave the area."Shall we?"

Inshitsu's mouth tightened as the shinobi ignored his question. Inshitsu sighed before answering, "Sure, I guess I really don't have much to lose." Inshitsu gathered himself, and walked over to where Grave was standing. Inshitsu looked up at the sky outside of the cave, glancing at the moon and stars. The stars were scattered scarely across the sky as the moon hovered between blocking their light. Inshitsu's eyes started to drift shut. Inshitsu shook his head violently before turning to Grave saying, "If you want to leave, I think we should do it now before I knock myself out." Inshitsu started to sway in order empathize his statement to Grave.

Walking outside the cave to see the young shinobi start to doze off fro a bit. Grave hit him in the back of the head with his the shakujo. Waking him up possibly seeing also the reaction of the young one. "Well now...seeing as that should keep you up there will be no sleeping on this walk as you'll be training with me now since you've decided to come with me." Grave smiles at him. As the young boy had passed him Grave shook his head saying, "Now listen you need to take word that just cause you came into the world of shinobi does not mean you cannot die...I understand if you may have already got to the point of killing but control it you'll lose yourself if you continue understand?" Grave kept a small pace until coming to an open field.

"This seems like an easy place to train for us as we are going to be working on somethings to see how you react with attacks. So be sure to have everything up and ready for you." Grave placed the Shakujo away and took out his handle of the blade of trails as he holds it focusing his spirit energy into it forming a powerful blade with a mixture of colors. Grave then charged at the young shinobi to see if he was able to react fast enough to the attack that was aimed at his left arm.

Inshitsu yawned and saw that Grave's lips were moving, but could not figure out what the words were, and Inshitsu was still rubbing his head from the thump he got from Grave, when he noticed that he was charging right at him with pulsating blade. 'Took him long enough, though he seems to be hoping for something.', Inshitsu's yawn had ended as he wasted no time in thinking, waiting until Grave was too close to be able change his course before he had jumped to his right, looking straight at Grave to make sure that he wasn't going for a second attack. He landed his leap without stumbling with his adrenaline kicking causing his eyes and body alike to speed up to heights that Inshitsu had never felt when training before. He stood in a defensive stance guarding both his torso and face, but allowing himself to be able to see the man welding the blade in front of him.

As Grave was pulling his saber from the right hand cutting the space that the young male was at Grave kept watch as he was pulling himself into a defensive position leaving Grave to pull the shukajo from behind him once more with his left hand having the metal tip coming aimed at the young shinobi. "Defense is usually the best offense. But you are facing against me so you'll be having to move instead of guarding if you think you can live during training!" Grave yelled out sharply with his voice aiming to pierce the boys ear drums to give a slight kick to understand that his life is in danger now with the training he is going under with Grave.

'If you are going to face against this young boy correctly you should use my powers that way he understands what he is really up against.' Grave smirked only to be in the mental state speaking with the bijuu as well, 'This coming from you, ha now that's funny first you don't want me to talk to you and you always talk to me more. So what's the deal turning a new leaf I see?' As grave was coming to reality he awaited for the connection of his staff towards the defensive boy.

Grave's roar had made Inshitsu's ears ring slightly, but he remained in the defensive stance either way. Inshitsu's muscles tightened as they felt the staff about to connect with the guard he had put. Grave's attack had hit Inshitsu making him spin and hit the ground with a thud. Inshitsu recovered quickly as he felt Grave preparing for another attack. His breathing was becoming heavier, 'So this is what a fight truly feels like.' Inshitsu's face had broken into a smile, feeling his instinct starting to take over his mind. He charged at Grave with his right hand tightening into a fist ready swing at Grave's arm welding the shukajo, hoping that he would catch him off guard so that he would drop it, and level the playing field more than it was at the current moment.

Grave saw the attack coming as he quickly stuck the staff into the ground to hoist himself over the attack watching as the young shinobi went under with his attack. Grave pushed off having the six rings shaking leaving him to land behind the boy with his saber still pulled out. "Better...your going on the offensive...but remember you do not want to get tunnel vision or else your enemies will get you like so." Grave smirked as he quickly formed 4 hand seals having him yell out, "Rise my fierce god of Earth!" soon the giant of earth came pulling out of the ground roaring at the shinobi as it took the form of a humanoid figure. Standing tall Grave jumped up on top of it having his right arm pulled back as the creature corresponded the same way as he through his fist the creature also launched forward with its right fist aiming at the ground behind the boy.

After making contact with the ground leaving a destroyed ground Grave waited to see the next action of the boy as he ended the jutsu coming back on ground level. "See...you need to be aware whom you are fighting as you don't know why they never use jutsus or attack blindly at someone." Grave smirked wondering what Raijin will teach the young boy next.

Inshitsu watched as his fist had missed the staff, while Grave leaped into the air casting hand seals. He started to stumble as the ground to open, revealing a large figure that the shinobi landed on. Grave pulled his right fist back, the giant figure mimicking his actions, and slammed his fist in a downwards motion. Inshitsu's eyes widened as he saw the figure's fist start to crash in to the earth that he had just stepped off. As the fist had connected to ground, destroying it and distorting the landscape, Inshitsu's feet had shot out from beneath as he landed on his back with his toes level with his eyes. He tumbled backwards landing on his stomach, too injured from the blow to react quickly to anything that Grave could throw at him next. 'To think that I'm this weak, no way I could kill my father, not if this is a shinobi's true strength.', Inshitsu coughed as Grave had landed on the ground shouting, "See...you need to be aware whom you are fighting as you don't know why they never use jutsus or attack blindly at someone." As he started to stand, his knees buckled beneath him stopping him from rising to face Grave. His mind started to shoot ideas of how to force himself to attack Grave before accepting that he had been injured too much to be able to do anything effective except for throwing grass at the opposing shinobi. His vision started to blur. As he took a last glance at Grave, he felt his body starting to drop, and closed his eyes in fell into a void of emptiness.

Grave watched as the shinobi was starting to fall over only to rush over to catch him. Shaking his head carefully he lifted the boy onto his back. "I cannot believe you passed out like that. Great I might as well carry your sorry ass back to my place." Grave laughed likely as he picked him up and having over his shoulders. Grave quickly relaxed for a moment as he started to have the bijuu's cloak form around him holding control from having it hurt the kid.

'I'll get you somewhere to rest kid...' Grave quickly vanished rushing back to the mansion as he met his father whom was sitting on the couch. "Hey!" Grave locked eyesight with the man glancing over at him. "WHY THE HELL ARE YOU HERE DON"T YOU HAVE YOUR OWN PLACE!" Grave's father nodded but sighed lightly, "Yes i do...but i got bored and found you two weren't here sooo....i invited myself in...for about a week." Grave's eye twitched a bit only to turn holding the kid still with his shakujo in the left hand. "I never said this once...but I hate you sometimes..." Grave's father smiled saying, "Feelings neutral son." Grave shook his head going up the stairs to an empty room having the boy lay down on a bed. "Rest here for a bit...I'm sure Raijin will be home soon to train you while I take care of some other things." Grave slowly left the room quietly heading back down to the living room with his father looking over.

"So...who was the kid?" Grave shook his head, "Someone I met at the Cave while I was coming back from my mission that grandfather gave me." Taking out the item that was wrapped up in the cloth." I'm not sure what the hell it is but it seems the children of a small village was left by their family because of it. So...I don't know I took it from them and then I traveled for a bit...but that's it i swear."

His father shook his head with the mask on waving his hand, "Alright....well if anything stay out of trouble." Grave blinked for a moment. "This coming from the man whom sneaks into other peoples houses..." The at moment his father turned saying, "Its only your house thank you very much."

Inshitsu's eyes flickered as he started to regain consciousness. He waited until his eyes were able to focus, and realized that he was under something. He panicked as he remembered being knocked out by Grave's strange figure that he managed to rise out of ground. He sat up, holding his hands to his face to see if he was alive. He sighed out of relief, as he realized that he could at least see his hands. He put his legs on the side of the bed and looked around in the room that he was in. It was a blank room with not much in it decoration wise. He stood up and walked towards the door. He reached with his right hand to twist the doorknob open. As it opened, he poked his head out of the door, looking down both ends of the hallway. He spotted the stairs and walked out of the room that Grave must of laid him in. He stopped before he descended the stairs, 'Or maybe it wasn't Grave that had picked him up.', the thought chilled Inshitsu as started to descend the stairs. Inshitsu's mind started to clear as he saw the ninja he was hoping for standing in the room before him. "So, I guess you gonna tell me something along the lines of, 'You need to train more.' aren't you?" Inshitsu waited with a look that hopefully transferred how he felt right then, annoyed and aching.

Grave tilted his head as he was sitting next to his father. "Nope...I was never planning on telling you that I don't have to tell you if you already know it. Why repeat something to someone when they already know what needs to be done." Grave then sat up shaking his head having his hair shake. Taking a few steps forward to look out the window he pointed out side as they were in the bottom layer of Raijin Mountain. "Now...the reason I brought you here is because you can train here if you need be...any equipment you need to use feel free to do so. But be warned...push yourself to hard...you'll most likely die...Also the library also contains scrolls that you can read up on. As they contain information that all shinobi must go...You'll have a daily ritual...a morning sparring after which you'll be trained to use jutsus of a certain level. After that you'll have to have studies with me as your teacher. You'll be asked questions...If you fail the test at the end of each class period consider yourself warned now."

Grave's father just turned his attentions over to the young man. But then Grave's mouth opened once more saying, "Another thing...missions will be done in which we and i mean the owners of this house hold see fit. So once you've completed them then you'll respond to us. We'll also be going with you to missions but not as backup but to watch you and make sure you are doing them correctly. Understood?" Crossing his arms turning to look at the new house holds member. "After you understood this, get some rest as you have a very big day tomorrow with your training partner...Raijin."

Inshitsu's focus remained on Grave as he instructed him of his new routine on life. Inshitsu had not noticed the man on the couch and even as the man had looked at him, he had not asked a single thing about him. When Grave's explanation about how he would be treated while living here finished, Inshitsu had simply nodded his head. Grave simply stared as anticipating his next move. Inshitsu didn't wish to disappoint, but he was exhausted from the earlier tustle and being that he was just knocked out, he wasn't sure that he had fully recovered from the hit. He turned around to advance up the steps that he had climbed down, going down the hallway until he came upon the door that he had left open. As he walked into the room, he shut the door, stretched and plopped down on the bed, closing his eyes. 'Sweet dreams for me, wish I could still say.', Inshitsu's face became a frown as he started to drift away from consciousness willingly this time.
